Li Fu wanted to invite Hu Dahai and Xu Cunren to dinner at night, but there was no time to prepare in the kitchen, so the little money housekeeper changed to a housekeeper who was originally serving in this courtyard and asked where there was a good restaurant nearby, and ordered him to lead the way and personally order a table for a banquet, and ordered the store not to forget to send it when the time came.

If you want to say that these three divisions and yamen, the punishment of the management of justice is the most leisurely, because small cases cannot reach him, and he does not need to solve them, and there are basically no major cases at the provincial level -- not that there are none, but that big cases are often related to a number of wealthy families in Nanhai County, how can those wealthy families go to the imperial court yamen to fight lawsuits and let the imperial court yamen judge? They solved it themselves privately!

Therefore, Xu Cunren can only sleep in the back house every day, and the grass is about to grow at the door of the lobby!

Xu Cunren and Hu Dahai came to the political envoy's yamen on time, although the three of them had never met before, let alone had a friendship, but because they got together in this special place and at a special moment, they all felt a little sympathy and sympathy for each other.

After a while of greetings, Li Fu smiled and said, "The two adults have worked hard here all these years!" ”

"I'm ashamed!"

"Don't dare to be!"

The two smiled bitterly and sighed, and they could see the sorrow in their hearts.

It's not that they don't want to take care of this realm, but that there are too many constraints on all sides, and they can't easily move it.

Li Fu's face was straight, and he said: "It's hard for the two brothers to be able to protect themselves!" There are no outsiders here, so we don't have to be polite! ”

As soon as these words came out, Xu Cunren and Hu Dahai's faces changed, and they exchanged glances.

As soon as the words were spoken, there were no scruples. Li Fu still trusts these two people, if Xu Cunren really colludes with the local gentry, the yamen will not be deserted like that, and Hu Dahai's many captains, thousands of households, hundreds of households, and counselors are all locals, and there are inextricable connections with the major gentry, that is their own people, and people don't need to win him over.

The four major families have an instinctive antipathy and rejection of the imperial officials, and they will not win them over, and they also despise the barbarism of the Southern Barbarians in their hearts, and they disdain to be in company.

It's a pity that these two seem to be disheartened, they live their own lives on weekdays, they are not very interested in external things, and they don't know as much about the four major families as Li Fu! Li Fu wanted to find out something useful from them, but it was unrealistic.

Li Fu couldn't help but be secretly disappointed in his heart, no wonder in his heart! The four major families and local tyrants are becoming more and more arrogant, and they are less and less concerned with the court and the emperor!

The officials of the imperial court gave them such an impression, how could they have respect in their hearts?

After three rounds of drinking, Xu Cunren found an excuse and got up to say goodbye first, he could see that Li Fu seemed to have something to say to Hu Dahai alone.

"Hou Ye is young and promising, in the northwest, Liaodong have made great achievements, although in the south of the corner also heard of Hou Ye's prestige, the husband should be so, it is really admirable! Nanhai County has Hou Ye, maybe there will be a new atmosphere! Hu Dahai smiled and raised his glass, and said with a heartfelt smile: "I wish Hou Ye a victory!" ”

"Thank you, Brother Hu!" Li Fu smiled, tilted his neck to drink the wine, and looked at the nearly forty-year-old veteran with Zitang's face, the long-term comfortable and depressed life made him look a little loose cheek muscles, and his complexion was not very good.

But occasionally, the bright light in his eyes inadvertently showed the general's unwillingness.

He's been depressed for so many years, it's time to wake up!

"I wonder what Brother Hu's plans are in the future?" Li Fu asked with a smile.

"What are you going to do?" Hu Dahai sneered and said: "It's a shame to say, my brother has been in the South China Sea for more than ten years, and he has been a commander from captain and staff general, but it's just to fill the gap, in fact, he hasn't made an inch, what else can he do?" After handing over to the Hou Ye, return to Beijing to listen to the emperor's arrangement! ”

He couldn't help but say again: "The soldiers of the Yamen and the guards here are all recruited on the spot, the Han people account for no more than thirty percent, the remote barbarian Tu tribesmen are about two percent, and the rest are recruited by the counties and counties, and the local heroes are inextricably linked, and many middle and high-level generals in the army are directly served by the children and relatives of the major families, these people have never listened to the dispatch, Yang Feng Yin violated, these I will slowly explain to Hou Ye clearly, Hou Ye must be careful in the future, remember not to act too aggressively, otherwise once it causes a mutiny, It's hard to control! ”

Li Fu raised his eyebrows and said, "Isn't there a cronie that Brother Hu can use?" ”

"Twenty-three out of ten," Hu Dahai smiled bitterly: "What can be done!" ”

Li Fu slapped the table and laughed when he heard this, and said proudly: "That's enough!" With the people I brought, I've been able to do a lot of things! ”

Li Fu said and sneered: "To put it bluntly, those people are all dependent on the four major families to exist, if the four major families do not exist, they are just rootless trees and sourceless springs, nothing to do!" ”

Hu Dahai's heart froze, and he changed color and said in surprise: "Master Hou, you want to move the four major families!" ”

Although the emperor suddenly sent such a military figure as Li Fu to serve as the political envoy, and at the same time served as the commander of the capital, Hu Dahai already had a conjecture in his heart, but at this moment, when Li Fu said this in person, he was still shocked and his heart jumped wildly.

Half-ringing, he smiled bitterly and said: "Master Hou is so courageous, my brother admires it!" It's just that although there is a small infighting between the four major families, they are both prosperous and lossy, and they are absolutely consistent externally! And the relationship between the small and medium-sized families and the four major families is intertwined, so to speak, they are all one! They have controlled this Nanhai County for hundreds of years, and it is even more deep-rooted, if the Hou Ye wants to deal with them, he must also be careful not to fight the snake but to suffer from it! The brother and the Hou Ye hit it off at first sight, but these words had to be said to the Hou Ye! ”

Li Fu smiled and said: "Brother Hu has good intentions, don't I know?" Brother Hu, don't worry, I won't do it if I'm not sure! I just want to ask Brother Hu one thing-"

Suddenly, Li Fu's expression was solemn, his eyes were shining, his eyes were burning and he looked directly at Hu Dahai, and said word for word: "Is Brother Hu willing to leave like this?" After so many years of being in their pockets, they are willing to return to Beijing in discouragement? If it were me, it would never be possible! If Brother Hu is willing to stay and help me, we may not be able to fight them together! Brother Hu, don't forget, my elite soldiers,"

Li Fu said with a smile.

Hu Dahai's heart was shocked, and his mind "buzzed", and it was blank in an instant.

He sat there in a daze, as if the whole person had lost his soul, his body, and everything, even the inherent consciousness was fading little by little.

He asked himself in a trance, are you willing? Of course it is unwilling!

Just go back to Beijing like this? Will he really be able to live without regrets?
